The Forbes Border Post in Mutare handles 55% of all strategic cargo moving through the Port of Beiraโฆ And, currently, 1100 trucks pass through the border every day.
President @edmnangagwaโs govt is already UPGRADING the Forbes Border Post to a World Class border postโฆ This is Zimbabweโs gateway to the Indian Ocean, just 300 km away from the City of Beira in Mozambique.

China supports #Zimbabwe in commemorating the #AntiSanctionsDay.
Some Western countriesโ decades-long illegal sanctions on Zimbabwe seriously violate its national sovereignty, hurt Zimbabwean peopleโs right to development and undermine international fairness and justice. The sanctions should be immediately removed.

Leadership in Action: Advancing Zimbabweโs Vision 2030 and Global Standing
Under the stewardship of His Excellency, the President and First Secretary of ZANU-PF, Dr. E.D. Mnangagwa, the Second Republic continues to drive a transformative agenda focused on economic independence, infrastructure modernization, and national empowerment.
1. Economic Growth and Strategic Milestones
Macroeconomic Stability: Prudent fiscal and monetary policies implemented by the ZANU-PF-led Government have yielded tangible results, with annual local currency inflation reaching historic single-digit levels.
Vision 2030 Momentum: Grounded in the philosophy that "political independence is incomplete without economic independence," the Second Republic is steadfastly advancing toward an Upper Middle-Income Society.
Diplomatic Triumphs: Zimbabwe recently reinforced its continental leadership by successfully hosting the 25th COMESA Heads of State Summit at the New Parliament Building in Mt Hampden, where President Mnangagwa assumed the Chairmanship of COMESA for 2026/2027 to champion regional industrialization and a $1 trillion market integration.
2. Coordinated National Leadership
International Engagement: His Excellency President Dr. E.D. Mnangagwa represents Zimbabweโs interests abroad, including attending major international platforms such as the Africa summit in Russia.
Global Outreach: Speaker of Parliament and ZANU-PF Secretary-General, Cde. J.N. Mudenda, continues vital diplomatic and legislative engagements in London as directed by the President to strengthen international relations.
Seamless Domestic Continuity: Back home, the two Vice Presidents, General (Rtd) Dr. Constantino Chiwenga and (Rtd) Dr Kembo Mohadi, alongside the Party and Government leadership, maintain total peace, order, and steady administrative progress.
True leadership is about coordinated vision, discipline, and unity of purposeโensuring that whether at home or representing the nation on the world stage, Zimbabwe moves forward under the banner: โNyika inovakwa nevene vayo / Ilizwe lakhiwa ngabanikazi baloโ. #Zimbabwe #MyZimbabwe2030 #Vision2030InAction #EDWorks @edmnangagwa

The Bulawayo - Victoria Falls Road is being FIXED, not because you complained, but because it is the right thing to do!
President @edmnangagwa runs a serious govt.
Folks in @TreasuryZW Zim, led by @MthuliNcube01, @GGuvamatanga, & David Mnangagwa are serious about funding infrastructure development.
The Minister of Economic Development, Dr Tagwirei, understands the importance of having an efficient transport network.
By 2030, Zimbabwe will be having an excellent road networkโฆ the work is in progress, and progressing smoothly

๐ZIMBABWE WAS PUNISHED FOR RECLAIMING ITS LAND
Minister of State for Manicaland and ZANU PF Central Committee member Hon Misheck Mugadza said Zimbabwe was punished with sanctions for reclaiming its land and empowering its indigenous people. He noted that sanctions deprived the country of access to financial resources, limiting economic opportunities and affecting ordinary citizens beyond those directly targeted.
He called for the removal of sanctions to allow Zimbabwe to pursue its development agenda under the leadership of His Excellency President Dr Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa, towards the realisation of Vision 2030.

Governments do not create jobs, INVESTORS doโฆ. Whether local or foreign, itโs INVESTMENT that leads to job creationโฆ
When you have a FOCUSED leader like President @edmnangagwa, investors FEEL COMFORTABLE to invest in the countryโฆ President Ruto wouldnโt have referred the Investor to President Mnangagwa if he didnโt have confidence in the gentlemanโs leadership!
Itโs a MASSIVE vote of Confidence in President @edmnangagwaโs govt, and a great head start for the newly appointed Minister of Economic Development & Investment Promotion, Dr Tagwirei.
Infrastructure projects create thousands of direct & indirect jobs for Zimbabweansโฆ they also boost businesses in the construction value chainโฆ
Zimbabwe has an infrastructure deficit, a barrier to accelerated growthโฆ For example, the Bulawayo - Victoria Falls highway is a vital economic corridor but itโs in a state of disrepairโฆ Fixing that road will unlock lots of economic opportunities!
CBZ, through an infrastructure bond, has stepped up to fund road construction in Zimbabweโฆ this is coming after Stanbic Bank agreed to fund the Chirundu Border Post upgradeโฆ.
We are entering a new era where local banks are directly involved in funding public infrastructure projects, something that will relieve pressure on the fiscus and speed up the completion of these projects.
Zimbabwean banks can grow bigger & be able to provide much-needed funding to local businesses & for infrastructure projects IF the SAVING CULTURE is brought back! The @ReserveBankZIM & @TreasuryZW need to work together on finding ways to bring money from Pillows to Bank Vaultsโฆ Some Zimbabweans prefer taking their money to banks in South Africa, depriving local banks of Deposit Funding. If more people use banks, it means the banks will have more capacity to finance cars, houses, business loans, & even public infrastructure! Zimbabwe is still under sanctions, itโs wiser to develop local financing capabilities instead of waiting for foreign lenders!

The so-called succession issue is dominating social media, yet it seems far removed from the reality on the ground especially among those who matter.
Having a preferred candidate in politics, the church, an organisation, football or the community is normal. That is human nature. The trouble begins when a handful of social media likes are turned into assumptions and hearsay.
Before I continue, let me ask: who still remembers the late Cde Geza and self-proclaimed successionist Mawarire making claims about our beloved Presidentโs health makuhwa enhema without a single shred of evidence? They were pushing cheap propaganda.
Today, the same narrative is resurfacing as we approach November, a significant month in Zimbabweโs political calendar because it was when our former President resigned.
The reality is that President ED Mnangagwa @edmnangagwa constitutionally holds office. The party has endorsed him as its candidate for 2030, and that decision should be respected as part of the democratic process.
To those hoping that the events of 2017 will repeat themselves: Mukai mubike doro, muti midzimu yakurashayi. Those events will never happen again.

Today, the 25th of October 2026, the Southern African Development Community joins the Government and the people of the Republic of Zimbabwe to commemorate the SADC Anti-Sanctions Day, under the theme Leveraging Regional Integration and Global Partnerships for Economic Transformation Beyond Illegal Sanctions.
Today, our Regional Economic Community sends one message to the world: we seek the complete and unconditional lifting of sanctions on our sister nation, the Republic of Zimbabwe.
This yearโs commemoration is especially important as we are increasingly aware of the global geopolitical and economic challenges of recent years and their significant effects on our national and regional economies. The sanctions imposed on the Republic of Zimbabwe therefore create an additional burden for its people amid an already challenging continental and international environment
We therefore appreciate the theme guiding this yearโs commemoration of SADC Anti-Sanctions Day, which underscores the need to transform the global approach to the current sanctions against Zimbabwe and fully liberate the country and its people, enabling them to achieve their rightful socio-economic fulfilment.
Full statement by the SADC Chairperson on the 2026 SADC Anti-Sanction Day can be found on this link: sadc.int/latest-news/statemeโฆ

Zim opposition is still full of non thinking adultsโฆ. A grown men who still believes that Zimbabweโs internal affairs have to be dictated by a group born out of colonialism???
I support Zimbabwe's readmission to the Commonwealth, but it must be guided by the 1991 Harare Declaration.
Following Sir Lindsay Hoyle's meeting with Speaker Mudenda, I ask:
Did they discuss the disputed parliamentary committee, CAB3, the PVO Act, shrinking civic space and Zimbabwe's compliance with Commonwealth principles?
Or are Britain's economic interests taking precedence over democratic values?
Zimbabwe must return not only to the Commonwealth, but to its principles.

๐๏ธ Today marks SADC Anti-Sanctions Day. ๐๏ธ
In 2019, the 39th SADC Summit designated October 25 as โAnti-Sanctions Dayโ, urging a handful of Western countries and organisations to lift the illegal sanctions against Zimbabwe ๐ฟ๐ผ.
For over two decades, these unjust unilateral sanctions have gravely trampled on Zimbabweโs sovereignty, eroded its peopleโs right to development, and held back Southern Africaโs pursuit of shared progress.
๐จ๐ณ ๐ค ๐ฟ๐ผ China reaffirms its unwavering solidarity with Zimbabwe. We consistently support Zimbabwe's position against external interference and its pursuit of independent development.
We urge relevant countries and organisations to heed global calls for justice, lift these illegal sanctions without further delay, and take tangible steps to advance Zimbabwe's economic revitalisation and deliver improved livelihoods for its people.
